Now the real work begins.

Very telling that they use that term at this point, admitting that the camping/squatting was more of a game/stunt than a legitimate means to an end.

I said it before; it's more work to travel to the core every day and have reoccurring protest than it is to sit in a tent. Camping is fun, that's why people do it. But leaving the house every day to make "protesting" your routine take a lot more commitment and work.

So it'll be interesting to see if they follow through. I imagine we'll have a handful of "flashmob" (sidebar, fata hate that term) activities in the coming weeks before this group burns itself out and moves onto the next great tragedy of the world.
